  • The bathymetric DEM of Tahiti and Moorea with a resolution of 0.001° (~ 100 m) was produced by the Shom for Météo-France (Inter-regional Direction in French Polynesia). This DEM covers a 10 km radius around the islands of Tahiti and Moorea in order to meet the need for marine submersions modelling in French Polynesia. The vertical reference for this product is Mean Sea Level (MSL).

  • The update of the coastal topo-bathymetric DEM of the Gironde estuary - upstream with a resolution of 0.0002° (~ 20 m) was carried out in the third phase of the HOMONIM project. This DEM covers the upstream part of the Gironde estuary, from Pauillac to Bordeaux on the Garonne and to Libourne on the Dordogne. It is complementary to the DEM covering the downstream estuary (between Pauillac and the mouth of the Gironde). The DEM is intended to be implemented in hydrodynamic models in order to produce forecasts as accurate as possible of water heights and sea states at the coast to improve the relevance of the Wave-Submergence Vigilance. The vertical reference for this product is Mean Sea Level (MSL).

  • The coastal topo- bathymetric DEM for the coasts of Morbihan with a resolution of 0.0002° (~ 20 m) was prepared as part of the TANDEM project (Programme Investissements d'Avenir, ANR-11-RSNR-00023-01). It covers the French administrative department of Morbihan and part of Loire-Atlantique. This DEM runs from the Gâvres peninsula in the north west to La Baule in the south east and covers the Gulf of Morbihan, the Quiberon bay and peninsula, Houat, Hoëdic and Belle-Ile islands and the Vilaine estuary. The DEM is designed to be implemented in the hydrodynamic models of the TANDEM project in order to estimate the coastal effects of tsunamis for the Atlantic and English Channel, where French nuclear power plants have been installed for about 30 years. This product is available with the Lowest Astronomic Tide (LAT) or the Mean Sea Level (MSL) as a vertical datum.

  • The coastal topo-bathymetric DEM of Tahiti with a resolution of 0.0002° (~ 20 m) was produced by the Shom for Météo-France (Inter-regional Direction in French Polynesia). This DEM covers the Tahiti lagoons down to the 100 m isobath, in order to meet the need for modeling marine submersions in French Polynesia. It complements the bathymetric DEM of Tahiti and Moorea, with a resolution of 0.001° (~ 100 m). The vertical reference for this product is the Lowest Astronomical Tide (LAT).

  • The coastal topo- bathymetric DEM for the coasts of the straight of Pas-de-Calais with a resolution of 0.0002° (~ 20 m) was prepared as part of the TANDEM project. The DEM covers the eastern Channel and southern North Sea, including the French coast of the Nord - Pas-de-Calais administrative department and part of the British coast, in the county of Kent, and the south part of the Thames estuary up to Rye. The DEM is designed to be implemented in the hydrodynamic models of the TANDEM project in order to estimate the coastal effects of tsunamis for the Atlantic and English Channel, where French nuclear power plants have been installed for about 30 years. This product is available with the Lowest Astronomic Tide (LAT) or the Mean Sea Level (MSL) as a vertical datum.

  • The bathymetric DEM for the coasts of La Réunion with a resolution of 0.001° (~ 100 m) was prepared as part of the HOMONIM project. The DEM covers the entire Reunion island. The model ranges off-shore to a depth of 4000 m. The DEM is designed to be used in hydrodynamic models in order to produce high-precision forecasts for coastal water levels and sea conditions and therefore improve the pertinence of the Waves-Submersion monitoring programme.

  • Litto3D is a unique and continuous land-sea database which provide 3D models of french coastal areas. Surveys are carried out by airborne lidar bathymetry over the sea side and airborne lidar topography over the land up to 2km inland. Litto3D digital models are available in two formats: a set of 3D points and a digital terrain model. The product "Litto3D - Brittany 2018-2021" covers the coastline and islands of Côtes d'Armor, Ille-et-Vilaine and Morbihan departments.

  • Litto3D is a unique and continuous land-sea database which can provide 3D models of the shape and location of French coastal terrain. A line separates sea and land data acquisition zones, and the associated survey readings obtained using bathymetric lidar technologies or multibeam echosounders for sea readings and airborne lidar topographical surveys for land readings, with 300 m overlap. Litto3D digital models are available in two formats: a set of 3D points and a qualified terrain mesh.

  • Bathymetric datasets, collected between 1970 and 1990, are mainly acquired with single-beam echosounders. Quality controls and qualification, conducted by the Shom, on these datasets are not exhaustive. Datasets may present significant uncertainties and errors may remain.

  • Litto3D marine part is a unique and continuous land-sea database which can provide 3D models of the shape and location of french coastal terrain. Surveys are carried out by airborne lidar bathymetry over the sea side and airborne lidar topography over the land side up to 400m inland. Litto3D marine part digital models are available in two formats: a set of 3D points and a qualified terrain mesh.
